son and George Downey, two young col
ored men, while on their way home about
midnight last night, noticed another col

Downey down, and then plunged a dirk
knife into Pearson and ran away.
The knife remained in Pearson's body.
The blade had perforated his liver and
penetrated his heart, and he died in a few
moments. Two hours later his assailant,
James jackson, a well known negro

Durbin Wards War Sword.

In his will the late General Durbin Ward
gave to his niece, Ella Ward, the JeWel,
mounted sword which had been presented
to him by the privates of his old regiment.
He enioins her that she shall 'deliver 1t
to her eldest son, should She ever be
blessed with one, and if he should die, to
the next oldest in succession, and with it
the charge never to draw it in bad cause,
and to never leave it sheathed should a
good one require its aid. and command him
also to send it down to posterity to the
eldest son, in the direct line so long as
any Ward blood can WELD sword, until
that blessed time shall come when all
swords shall be beaten into ploWshares."

INDIAN HONESTY.
Story of a Cherokee Which Furnishes Con-
sidcra BILE Food for Reflection.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle
there can hardly be doubt that there IS
something wrong about the Indian coun-
try There is not Jail anywhere within
the bounds of the Cherokee reserva tion.
No country can ever be at high point OF
civilization in ch there are no jails ant
nobody does any thing to need them. we
have always been taught to look upon
Damon and Pythias as one of the mo st
beautiful stories Of friendship and
honor Listen to this from the
Cherokee Indian and ask yourself if
it does not give you some different
opinion of him. An Indian was shot for
killing another man some time ago. A
stranger in the Territory happened to be
with the sheriff when the news that the
appeal had been lost and the sentence
must be carried out.
Yes said the sheriff, "rll have to
have the poor fellow shot"
"Where is he! don't see any jail"
"He's at home"
"a prisoner under sentence of death at
home!"
Certainly; he's out on his word. He's
been at home three months. We've got no
iails here"
"Well, you don't expect to get him to
come and be shotn
"Ccrtainly do. He'll be here tomorrow
l sent for him.
And the merry stranger laughed Next
day he was on hand to witness the sheriff s
discontinue But few minutes before
the hour a cavalcade appeared in the dis
tance 1t was headed by a manly young
Indian and it was made up of his friends.
They rode gallantly up and the young In
dian surrendered him self to the sheriff.
He went about among the crowd, shook
hands with everybody, gave one his sad
die, another his horse, and so on, until he
had disposed of all he possessed. Then he
selected his bosom friend as the man to
fire the fatal shot, an honor his bosom
friend esteemed highly. He took his
place; pinned piece Of blue ribbon over
his heart, the point the bullet was to take,
and stood up like man. A few seconds,
there was shot, and he was dead. l
wonder if there is nothing at all the white
man can learn from the Cherokee Indian.

An Indians Ingenuity.

A Western emigrant having stolen
horse from an Indian, the latter convicted
him of the offense by very ingenious
plan. He complained to a judge, who had
the emigrant, with the horse, brought be-
fore him. The prisoner swore that the
animal belonged to him, and that he had
brought it from the East. so that the
Judge did not find himself in position to
convict. He was even about to return the
horse to him, when the Indian said: "lf
you will allow me, will prove that the
animal belongs to me-" Immediately he
pulled off his cloak, and covering the
horses head, asked the emigrant OF which
eve it was blindl The robber was much
embarrassed at the question, but, never.
theless, not to delay the court, he replied
at hazard that it was the right eye. The
Indian, uncovering the head, exclaimed
ssThe horse is not blind either of the righ
eye or the leftn The judge Immediately
decided that the animal was his.

Roscoe Conkllng's Curl.

An Auburn lady tells this about Roscoe
Conking: "One day when Roscoe was
visiting my fathers family the horse and
sulky were brought up to the door and my
father was just getting ready to start out
for ride among his patients. Young
Roscoe thought he would get some life
out of the old horse, took pin and stuck
it in his launches, when the usually staid
animal suddenly gave a kick and hit
Roscoe o severe blow on his forehead,
cutting a cash that to this day leaves a
scar on the brow. And this is why the
ex-senator permits a little curl to drop
over it,n

STORY OF A KISS.
What a Woman Was Afraid OF and What
Really Happened.

A Circassian was walking along one
road and woman along another, relates
a writer in Chambers Journal. The roads
finally united into one, and reaching the
point Of junction at the same time, they
walked on together The man was carry
ing large IRON kettle on his back; in one
hand he held the legs of live chicken, in
the other cane, and he was leading a
goat. They neared a dark ravine. Said
the woman: 81 am afraid to go through
that ravine with you; it is lonely place,
and you might overpower me and kiss me
by force" Said the man: "HOw can
possibly overpoWer you and kiss you by
force when | have this great iron kettle
on my back, a cane in one hand, live
chicken in the other and am leading this
goat? | might as well be tied hand and
foot" yes" replied the woman; "but II
you should stick your cane IN the ground
and tie your goat to it,, and turn the kettle
bottom-side up and put the chicken under
it, then you might wickedly kiss me in
spite of nv resistance Success to thy
ingenuity, o womanln said the rejoicing
man to himself; II should never have
thought of this or similar eXpedients.n "
And when they came to the ravine he stuck
his cane into the ground and tied the goat
to it, and gave the chicken to the woman,
saving: "Hold it while cut some grass
for the goat" and then-soruns the legend
lowering the kettle from his shoulders,
he put the fowl under 1t and wickedly
kissed the woman, as she was afraid he
would. d.-Chan,bers' Journal
